Question

What is the shelf life of this product?

I bought this brand of beef jerky from my local walmart today for an emergency food kit. When I got home I looked for the freshness date or expiration date and there was none. How long can I expect this to last stored at room temperature unopened?

About 15 to 18 months....then again, with exp dates,....depends on the containment and storage of the product. Once opened limits are short in time.

the use by date should be on the package, sometimes its in white and others in black. But from things I have read if unopened it should be good for 5 years. Having said that, we do try to use it by the use by date or within a few months of that, though rarely does it last that long even with the quantity we buy. If you cant find the date have the store personel help you locate it before purchase.

answer 2

The product should be used within 3 days once opened. If it is not consumed within 3 days, it should be refrigerated. Once opened, the product is exposed to oxygen, which provides an environment conducive to the growth of mold. The product does best in a cool dry environment. The length of time it will remain fresh once opened and refrigerated will vary depending on the conditions.

Ingredients sourced and made?

You said the beef is USDA beef. Is the beef sourced in the US? Is the product made and packaged in the US? And what about all those other ingredients, where are those coming from? Thank you.
